I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Lafayette, LA) in Apr 2012
Interview
I applied for the job online and in three days I received a call from the HR department for a phone interview. The woman asked very standard interview questions like name a time that I went above and beyond for a customer and how did I handle a situation with an angry customer. I must have done okay because in another three days I received a call to schedule an in-store interview. I scheduled the interview a week later and asked for the appropriate attire for the interview. When I arrived to the store they told me they didn't have me in the computer system for that day so I had to wait almost an hour while the manager printed out my application and looked over it. The woman who interviewed me was very nice. She had a genuine smile and made sure I didn't feel uncomfortable during the whole interview. I ultimately wasn't offered the job because my availability wasn't broad enough, but overall the interview was very easygoing and I got good practice for interviews I will have in the future.

It was an in-person interview held at the store. The interview was relaxed and friendly. The manager asked about my previous customer service experience, how I handle busy hours, and my ability to lead a team at the front end. They also asked situational questions to see how I would respond to customer concerns or team issues. The whole process was clear, professional, and supportive.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at The Home Depot (Gloucester Courthouse, VA) in Sept 2024
Interview
My interviewer asked basic questions, which were nothing too difficult. They are looking for how you handled past situations and want more than just one or two sentences, try to tell them the story from start to end with details but at the same time make sure you are not talking about the same story for 2+ minutes.
